Rolex with F*CK EM on the dial. Mostly targeting younger crowd  ;D especially people who are into SUPREME.

IMHO. The demographics that this is aimed at are very rich spoilt kids in the 18-25 age range whose parents give them so much money they don't know what to do with it. If you are older than 25 years old, and still wear fashion accessories with the word "F*CK" written on them; you seriously need to grow up and stop playing with that X-Box/PS/Wii.

The idea itself is not new. There have been a fair number of customized Rolexes by very well recognized streetwear brands. One such other example would be the Mastermind Japan one, done up by Bamford.

Supreme;s core values have always been about simplicity, so I'm not surprised they came up with this. Juvenile, I know... but if I have to be honest, I quite like.

Like the Supreme idea.
But this is not new as previously customized Rolexes by very well recognized streetwear brands have been done before.
I tend to agree with kenix, its very expensive "street watch".  :HammerHead:

IMHO, It ruined the watch.

Its like buying a Porsche 997 then fit it with oversize low profile chrome wheel tire and put it on positive camber.

A Supra or Sylvia might work, but not something already a classic masterpiece.

(sorry for the "car enthusiast understand only" metaphor, for those who don't know what I mean, here's a food metaphor)

Its like putting a slab of mayonaise on top of a baskin robbins ice cream cake.

Got the message, bezelnut.
To some its "Cool!", to others it's an "overkill".
Well, to each its own.
